Travel Advisory – Potential Disruptions to Middle East Travel

The evolving geopolitical situation in the Middle East is impacting travel, with multiple airlines announcing flight cancellations and re-routings, and countries closing airspace.

Traveler Support Update

For Connexxus travel agencies, call volumes are high and extended hold times are expected. Dedicated teams are working around the clock to support affected travelers.

  • Travelers who are traveling within the next 48 hours and whose travel is directly affected by the current situation should contact the agency that booked the initial ticket so itineraries can be reviewed, and risks or disruptions assessed.
  • Travelers should continue to remain attentive to airline and airport communications. It is strongly recommended that you download the airline app and turn on notifications. 

If you have any questions or concerns related to travel risk, contact UC Risk Services.
